What is the GDS?
A global distribution system (GDS) is a computerized network system owned or operated by a company that enables transactions between travel industry service providers, mainly airlines, hotels, car rental companies, and travel agencies. The GDS mainly uses real-time inventory (e.g. number of hotel rooms available, number of flight seats available, or number of cars available) from the service providers. Travel agencies traditionally relied on GDS for services, products, and rates in order to provide travel-related services to the end consumers. Thus, a GDS can link services, rates, and bookings consolidating products and services across all three travel sectors: i.e., airline reservations, hotel reservations, and car rentals.

What is Travelport?
Travelport GDS is one of the ‘big three’ GDS systems, which are used by businesses in the travel industry, including hotels, to distribute inventories to travel agents. By connecting a hotel to a global distribution system, it is possible to increase demand for hotel rooms, resulting in more bookings and more revenue.
